Evaluation of SIGFOX for Internet of Things

There are many technologies present for the internet of things, for instance IEEE 802.15.4. However, IEEE 802.15.4 enables only short range communication. For long range backhaul an infrastructure is required which is provided by the ZIGFOX company.

Details

This project investigates the capabilities of SIGFOX. It will investigate readily available products, and evaluate the performances and compare the results to other technologies, e.g. IEEE 802.15.4. Additionally, an rf module for our TinyTriSOS hardware design is created, which is eventually evaluated.

Aufgaben

Design of a rf module for our TinyTriSOS module based on SIGFOX.

Write an application to communicate with the rf module to exchange data and test the capabilities of the rf module.
